Process Group Long Term Goals

The making of the process groups website has been an interesting challenge. So far we have a site that is based on the main page of the Umass wiki. Our long term goals include making a smoother looking site that includes all the links from our classmates pages. We also want to put pictures on our site of our class. We think it would be a good idea to take a class photo and upload it onto the wiki site. Overall, we would like the main page to be aesthetically pleasing as well as simple to get around. In the coming weeks we hope to be able to “speak” the language of the wiki and create a better overall site.

Process Group

The Process Group (Anthony, Emma, Amanda, Sara, Jazz, and Francisco) made contact this week via email. We discussed our format for the site and what we wanted to accomplish. All the members of the group made equal contributions with idea suggestions for the site. We decided to base our home site after the main page of the course wiki. Right now our site is underway and we have been including links to our group members individual sites. It has been difficult figuring out how to setup a site that is easy to navigate and also links everyones respective pages, but the more we have been experimenting with the wiki, the better the site has been getting.

Study Abroad Long Term Goals

The long term goals of the study abroad group is to have a smoother working website, that is easier to navigate. We also hope to incorporate stories of our classmates and professors study abroad experiences. We would like to add more photos and have a site that easy to get around. Also a site that is informative, but also interesting to look at.

Study Abroad

The study abroad team (Emma and Anthony) have been in contact this week via email. We discussed the design aspects of our page. We decided that to go along with our text we should include photos of our respective trips. Our site is still very much in the design phase, but so far we have put up a decent amount of information.

Study Abroad Group

Emma and I are doing the study abroad group. Our site will talk about both of our experiences going abroad, and will also interview members of our class that have previously gone abroad. We will include pictures from our trips and in general talk about the experiences and what we liked/didn’t like about the trips.

We will also defer to the actually IPO site, and will include a link to that department at UMass since they will be able to further answer anyone’s questions.

In general the site will be directed at both sharing abroad stories as well as being informative and helping people that are searching for information about the topic.

Wiki

I think that after reading everyones posts, it seems that we are moving along well. I think that these next couple of weeks will be pivotal in the quality of the webpage that we put together. If everyone works hard at whatever part they have, we should be able to develop a good project since we have so many people in the class. I’m excited for the project and to actually work on it.
